Hired this company to do a home inspection. He asked what my concerns were and in the report they…read morewere never addressed other than a cursory statement of being okay. This just confirms my belief that these house inspections are pretty much worthless unless your a complete idiot or blind and can't see cracks in a concrete foundation etc. Gave him three stars because he did find that the date on the water heater was 20 years old which I would have found had I not been over a 1,000 miles from the house and did the inspection myself. Probably a good idea to have an inspection if you're not at all familiar with construction or don't want to be bothered by going online and print out your own inspection checklist and do it yourself. Just my opinion.....

We use this inspection company while purchasing our home. If you need somebody that can point out…read morethat the doors don't shut or that the light switch plates are crooked I highly suggest them. But if you're looking for a company that is going to tell you that the siding was installed wrong, that the concrete slab holding the front porch and roof was not done properly, windows that don't shut but just noted as tight? and when I see they don't shut I'm talking the top of the door is tight and the bottom of the door has a 3 inch yes 3 inch gap. The reason that they are tight is because it was an addition that was not done properly which anybody in the inspection business should've looked up and seen. having three contractors out within 15 seconds that was the first things they noticed. The fact that you missed electrical wires running outside of the house not in conduit just laying in the yard was a big plus to! The fact that you missed electrical wires that were just taped together in the laundry utility area brings me comfort as well. I'm sure there will be a response to this but just remember when I did call about the porch you informed me it was because we had lots of rain recently which would not make any sense considering the report was done before the so-called rain that caused the washout that you said caused the issues. If anybody's looking for an inspection company please steer clear of this one. I look forward to reading your response, I might even post some pictures.
